that first "strike" for counsell? I can't figure out this strike zone. It doesn't only suck, it's not consistent.

I don't want to be a downer, but objectively, wouldn't you pick the Phillies? The Brewers are deservedly the underdog, for a lot of reasons. I still think the Brewers are a good team, and I know they get disrespected a lot, but the Phillies won their division, finished the year hot, swept the Crew just a few weeks ago, and were here last year.
The Phillies are the better team in every category except for best #1 pitcher. I don't blame anyone for picking the Phillies. Doesn't mean the Brewers can't pull an upset.

Its like watching a bunch of minor leaguers trying to hit a major league pitcher. Pathetic. This team needs a complete makeover, offensively. This all or nothing offense has been nothing for 4 weeks now

I turned on Gamecast just in time to see Hall with a swinging strike that was about a mile south of the strike zone. Has anyone told these guys that the whole league knows most of the team will chase that pitch and to, I don't know, maybe realize its coming with two strikes?

Can we please just go with Counsell and Durham the rest of this series? I don't care which side they hit from, Hall and Weeks are bringing absolutely nothing to the party. Oh yeah, those three runs - all due to the fact that they can't catch.

Can someone please tell the Brewers how to hit a change-up?
What do you mean? Skaalen is telling them to swing when it's almost in the dirt and take when it's across the plate.
